How to enable the 4g option on Beeline. Beeline mobile operator network coverage area
Fast mobile Internet today is no longer an abstract desire of the user, but a vital necessity. Social networks, sharing music and video files via cloud services, IP-telephony, video calls, watching On-line video - all these delights require constant and quick connection to the Internet. networks, for a number of reasons, cannot cope with this task, and then new generation networks are rushing to replace them!
What is 4G anyway?
4G is a collective term used when talking about high-speed mobile communications. In order for an operator’s network to be called, it must meet the following requirements:
- Speed internet connections up to 100 Mbit/s;
- Opportunity large quantity simultaneous connections to one base station;
- Opportunity smooth transition from network to network and back;
- The operating principle is based on IP protocols (similar to local networks For desktop computers or laptops).
4G from Beeline
Let's meet! Beeline has entered into a serious battle for users mobile internet and began active coverage of Moscow with 4th generation networks. Some facts.
- Average data transfer rate on the network is 10-20 Mbit/s, which is comparable to the speed at home wired internet. By the way, average speed 3G only 2-3 Mbit/s;
- Maximum speed- in the future, network speed will be increased to 100 Mbit/s!
- Coverage area- Beeline LTE base stations operate at a frequency of 800 MHz, which allows one base station, all other things being equal, to provide 4 times more coverage than other operators. By the end of 2013, high-speed Internet from Beeline will cover 80% of the territory of Moscow, and in 2014, active development of 4G will begin in the Moscow region;
- Better signal indoors, thanks to work on low frequencies 800 MHz;
- The company's network load is lower than competitors, and as a result, the load on base stations is lower. Accordingly, the speed, reliability and stability of the connection are higher;
- 4G connection available for any tariff and tariff option Beeline.
A little about tariffs
Beeline offers a flexible system for selecting individual tariffs or tariff options for users:
- Options with daily payment . The subscription fee is charged in equal installments every day: from 7 rubles/day
- Classic traffic package with subscription fee . One-time write-off subscription fee Once a month: from 190 rub./month
- Internet for a day. Large volume of traffic per day for an affordable price: from 19 rubles/day
It is important to understand that 4G services are available for absolutely any Beeline tariff plan and any tariff option.
How to use 4G LTE networks?
To connect to new generation high-speed networks, it is enough to have a device that supports Russian LTE networks and USIM card. A USIM card is an extended version of a SIM card that is supported by mobile phones LTE, with increased internal memory. It is fully compatible with phones without LTE support.
What to do if 4G is not available?
The coverage of 4G networks is less than that of 3G and 2G networks, which is expected due to the youth of the technology. Therefore, a reasonable question immediately arises: what will happen when the 4G network is unavailable? The answer is simple: “LTE 4G is fully interoperable with previous generation networks.” Namely:
- All 4G devices operate in 3G and 2G networks;
- If there is no 4G, automatic transition to a 3G network (or 2G network, depending on availability);
- To make or receive a call, the phone automatically switches to the 3G/2G network and returns to the 4G network when the call ends.
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Will I keep my phone number after switching to USIM? | Yes, the phone number will not change when replacing SIM with USIM. |
| I have a 4G phone, but 4G does not work. What to do? | To access 4G, you need to replace the SIM with LTE USIM in your own Beeline office in the Moscow region. |
| Why does the phone “think” for a couple of seconds when I try to make a call? | There is a switch from the 4G network to the 3G/2G network - this is due to the peculiarities of technology development. As 4G technology develops, the pre-call delay will be eliminated. |
| Why doesn't the phone immediately return to 4G after a call? | Switching from a 3G/2G network to a 4G network does not occur instantly - this is due to the peculiarities of technology development. As 4G technology develops, post-call delay will be eliminated. |
| Does it work on 4G? Voice connection? | On this moment Voice communication over the 4G network is not provided. However, this does not mean that you cannot use 4G on your smartphone! During a call you are automatically switched to the 2G/3G network, after the call ends you are automatically returned to 4G. |
4G, by which we mean LTE technology, is the fastest today. Why are we talking about LTE? Because true 4G is not yet available on mobile devices, but LTE is the first step towards ensuring that in the future we will be able to enjoy connections with speeds of up to 1 Gbps.
LTE and 4G are very fast wireless Internet. Nowadays it is available from almost all operators
Be that as it may, high-speed LTE is already available in Russia from many operators and is supported by a fairly large number of smartphones. Let's find out 4G on Android depending on your operator.
How to connect 4G on Android?

A little about the new mobile network network
Quality, quality again and highest speed laid down in principle a new type of 4G Internet network. Data is transferred at speeds of up to 10 MB per second. Previously, one could only dream of this. Only cable Internet and Wi-Fi networks had similar speeds, but mobile method the speed was much more modest.To understand what this is, let's analyze the possibility of other technologies, for example, 2G. Loading any, even the simplest page, took about 50 seconds. The next 3G technology accelerated this process to 1 second, and the use of the latest technology allows you to open any page almost immediately.
To fully enjoy watching a movie, it will take only 7 minutes, and your favorite piece of music will load in just 2 minutes. Many people dreamed about this, and now it has finally come true. Beeline operator clients have access to a modern and technologically advanced network in different ways.
Features of connecting the Beeline 4G network on your phone
To be able to enjoy high-speed data transmission/reception options on your phone, you should either purchase modern device with support for new technologies, or connect by purchasing a USIM card with built-in support for the new broadcast format. In addition, the service is already available on the “All” tariff lines and the “Highway” options. The operator will automatically switch the device to new technology mobile networks, if it supports it.If you have an old mobile device, which does not support 4G data transmission technology, then you need to purchase a more modern device. Beeline sales offices and networks of other electronics stores offer various models, including quite budget options, which receive modern signals in good quality. Also, when you buy a new SIM card that supports work in new generation networks, the operator will offer to keep you the same number that you had before, but you will already use the device in a completely new way and at new speeds!
Setup procedure on mobile phone
You can already receive 4G signals in 20 Russian regions. As a rule, immediately after detecting a device, the operator sends automatic settings, but if this does not happen, you can do this manually from the main settings menu.In case of receiving automatic settings, the subscriber only needs to activate them and the phone will work on the new network.
In case of introduction manual settings, the user needs the following data:
- Network name: Beeline Internet
- APN: internet.beeline.ru
- Username: beeline
- Password: beeline
- Authentication type: PAP
- APN type: default
- APN protocol: IPv4
On some devices you need to go to “Settings”, select “SIM cards and networks”, and in the menu list find the “Network mode” section, in which select 4G.
With high-speed Internet, new opportunities are revealed - you can participate in any online games, organize conferences, use Skype and see your friends online, as well as use cloud storage services.
Using 4G on Beeline modems and routers
Modems and Wi-Fi routers, they are already set up to receive modern level signals.Let's look at the setup procedure on the modem:
The Beeline branded router is connected in a similar way, also with loading software. True, through a router you can distribute the Internet to other devices, also with high-speed parameters! Just open the interface, enter the page and enter the login password, and on your computer you should specify the network password (indicated on the device packaging) in the Internet connection settings.
In this article we will cover the topic of what Beeline coverage area is, as well as how to find out about its status in a particular region and solve connection problems.
Beeline coverage map and its features
Having studied the map of the location of the operator’s communication towers, you can see that the entire country is covered by them. But communication is not always present where there are well-equipped stations mobile operator. Why so, you ask.
Many users who do not know about the features of mobile communications attribute problems with it to the service operator. But this is far from true.
Network quality depends on many factors:
- Insufficient signal emission power from base tower or wrong direction antennas
- Uneven distribution of base stations due to the peculiarities of the geographical location and architectural development of the settlement, resulting in incomplete coverage of the territory.
- The quality of communication also depends on the building density of the area, the layout of the building in which the subscriber is located, or even the thickness of its walls.
- Play an important role weather - so, rain has a big impact on throughput communication channels.
Mainly about connection quality and coverage areas the subscriber wants to know in the following cases:
- Buying real estate (most often outside the city).
- When going on a trip, picnic or vacation.
- Going on a business trip.
Below you can see the coverage map:
By the way, on the map large cities are generally shown with the best signal, but distant ones settlements, so to speak, the outback cannot boast of this.
But here a surprise may await you - although the tower may not be indicated on the map, the operator’s connection in this area can be quite tolerable.
For what reason does this happen? Most often, a reflected signal is involved in this, although small inaccuracies in drawing up the coverage map cannot be ruled out.
Where can I get 3g and 4g signals from Beeline?
Having carefully studied the Beeline coverage map, you will notice that the Internet of these categories is not available everywhere. The best signals of 3g technology can be received in the central part of the country, but in the eastern and northern regions the situation is worse.
Regarding the Internet using 4g technology, the coverage here is much more modest. Base stations with this signal are located pointwise, which means that not all operator users can receive the signal.
4g Internet can be used by residents of the Moscow and St. Petersburg megacities, as well as their regions. Residents of certain central regions of Russia also have this advantage.
In other regions of the Russian Federation, 4g signals appear only in the largest cities - administrative centers of the regions where Beeline LTE base stations are located. This service is provided in 11 regions of the country, increasing the volume to cover more and more new territories every year.
Signal reception problems and how to solve this problem
As mentioned above, the absence of a signal or its poor quality take place everywhere. And the operator is not always the reason for this. Now we would like to tell you what you can do if you have bad signal operator.
Of course, complaining about a small number of base stations or their insufficient power will not speed up the process of installing new ones or upgrading old ones.
But by sending a request to the operator indicating your location and the characteristics of the signal you are receiving, you can be sure that the operator will definitely consider this request and check the settings of its stations in this region, which may simply need additional correction. That is why it is very important for Beeline Feedback with your users.
In addition, the problem may lie in the gadget itself, which simply does not receive a signal due to the fact that it does not support this type of communication. To avoid this, when purchasing equipment, be sure to ask the seller about the functions of receiving communication signals.
To solve connection problems in remote areas of the region where the signal does not penetrate well, such as in the country, you can install special cellular amplifiers.
It is also worth paying attention to the time of registration on the network. The fact is that during peak hours, when the network experiences a large influx of users, the signal scatters and there simply may not be enough for everyone, or its quality begins to “limp”.
It will be useful to view:
Grand total
In order to be connected, users need to have an idea of the quality of communication in the area where they are located. To do this, the Beeline operator has posted a very accessible map of its network coverage on its website. If the subscriber is not satisfied with the signal quality, the company is always ready to listen and help solve the problem. In addition, today the solution to many connection problems is not limited to adjusting antennas to base stations, and you can find out exactly what solutions to problems exist in this article.
